Do-a-thon for OpenMod January 2020 in Berlin

Very often data is conveyed to the public or shared with other researchers in the form of graphs. In the case of large datasets there is often many ways to visualize the data, which ultimately depend on the end-user interests or preferences. Plotly Dash is very handy for building data visualization apps with custom user interfaces in pure Python. Since Dash apps are viewed in the web browser, Dash is inherently cross-platform and mobile ready. The apps can be deployed locally or to servers. We will build a simple Dash app together.
